The reason most doctors,
nutritionists, the USDA
Food Guide Pyramid, and the official USFDA
Recommended Daily Allowance (RDA) recommend a high-fiber diet
is based on the faulty logic of Dr. Dennis Burkitt, a British surgeon working
in Africa more than half a century ago. Dr. Burkitt's theory that barley bread
prevented inflammatory bowel diseases has led to the current dietary fiber
theory. Dr. Burkitt's fiber theory was developed in the late 1960's and was based on a impromptu hunch that fiber
in the diet accounted for the difference in digestion system health between
his African patients and white Englishmen living in Africa and England. His opinion was not based on any
scientific studies. He did not perform controlled tests. He did not isolate
the groups with only fiber as the variable. His assumption that fiber in the
diet made his African patients healthier was wrong.

The reason Dr. Burkitt
concentrated on fiber instead of the many other nutritional differences is
unknown. He was familiar with the intestinal problems in the peasants and
common people of England in that day. The white Englishmen living in Africa
ate the same imported refined foods as their own countrymen in England. The
many obvious differences in a comparison of the two diets are the true reasons
for the better health of the Africans.

The English ate large
quantities of sugar. The Africans ate none.

The English ate large
quantities of flour. The Africans ate none.

The English ate large
quantities of breakfast cereals made from grain. The Africans ate none.

The English ate large
quantities of potatoes. The Africans ate none.

The English ate salt cured
meat when meat was eaten. The Africans ate fresh meat, not cured meats.

The English ate very little
fresh meat or raw meat. The Africans ate a generous supply of both.

The English were most likely
to be protein deficient. The Africans had a generous supply of protein
from meat.

The English diet was deficient
in omega-3 fatty acids. The Africans had omega-3 fatty acids in the fresh
meat.

The English diet was deficient
in vitamins and minerals in processed foods. The Africans fresh food
provided an abundance of vitamins and minerals.

The English diet caused rotten
teeth and weak bones. The Africans had awesome teeth and bones.

The English drank large
quantities of sugar sweetened soft drinks. The Africans drank none.

The English ate a significant
amount of honey. The Africans ate none.

The English ate molasses and
maple syrup. The Africans ate none.

The English ate a significant
amount of canned fruit. The Africans ate very little fresh fruit and none
canned.

The Africans were simply showing
the benefits of eating a relatively low-carbohydrate diet consisting of fresh
meats with animal fats and a few vegetables instead of the English diet that
was high in carbohydrates like sugar,
flour, cereals, honey, syrup, soft drinks, and potatoes. The African barley
bread was a very small part of their diet. Vegetarians have lied
about the true diet of the Africans who were large meat eaters, not
vegetarians. The Africans raised domestic cattle, sheep, goats, and hunted and
eat an abundance of wild animals. Fresh meat was very
plentiful to the Africans and they consumed it in great quantities. In addition, the
Africans consumed all of the fat from the animal because it was considered to be the
best part of the animal. The English people tended to cut off and discard the
animal fat. The English also ate very little meat. The meat the English did
eat tended to be processed and heavily salted. The diet of the Englishmen was
protein deficient, but the diet of the African was rich in protein and fat
from eating fresh animal meat. The protein deficiency and high-carbohydrate diet of the English
are
the primary causes for intestinal diseases and colon cancer observed by Dr.
Burkitt.

Why was Dr. Burkitt's "fiber
theory" immediately accepted by the medical and nutritional professionals
while overwhelming evidence against it was ignored? The
reason is intuitively obvious. Meat has no fiber. Vegetarians will promote any
and every lie possible in hopes you will stop eating animals. The dietary
fiber theory is religion based.

Dr. Weston A. Price, DDS,
visited the African Masai tribe in 1935 because they were noted for having
excellent health. The average male stood well over 6 feet tall (183 cm) with
perfect teeth, strong bones, and no intestinal diseases. The tall women gave
birth easily to healthy robust babies. The Masai lived entirely off of their
cattle. They herded cows, drank their blood and milk, and ate the meat with
all of the fat. The
Masai refused to eat grains or grass seeds, claiming the grains and seeds were
cow food not suitable as food for humans. The amount of fiber in the diet of
the Masai was zero, absolutely none. The milk, blood,
meat, and fat eaten by the Masai have no fiber. The Masai have proven that fiber is not a
dietary requirement for perfect digestion and cancer free colon health.
According to Dr. Burkett’s fiber theory the Masai should have had an
epidemic of intestinal diseases and colon cancer. They had none. Dr.
Burkett’s fiber theory is pure nonsense.

The Arctic Eskimos ate an all-meat
diet with zero fiber, yet they had very healthy digestive systems with no
cancer of any kind in the entire population. The digestive health of the
Eskimos was much better than that of Dr. Burkitt's African patients who ate
the higher fiber barley bread diet.

For centuries the North American Plains Indians ate
a diet that was very low in fiber. The low-fiber diet provided excellent
health. They did not suffer from inflammatory bowel diseases or cancer. Their
primary food was buffalo meat with the fat, both of which have zero fiber. They also ate pemmican which was a mixture of dried buffalo meat crushed and shredded before being mixed 50/50 with
melted buffalo fat. The fat content was about 70% on a calorie basis. Dried berries were sometimes
added but this was a small part of the caloric intake.
The pemmican would keep for years without refrigeration and provided complete nourishment. The Hudson Bay Company
and North West Company (fur traders) purchased pemmican from the Indians by the ton and even had a specification whereby they would pay a higher price for premium pemmican made with bone marrow fat. The Indians and European explorers to North America also preferred the buffalo tongue for consumption after a kill, due to its high fat content.Pemmican Recipe by Lauren Muney at Physicalmine.com.

The reason vegetarians promote the
fiber theory is because meat does not contain fiber. But why do medical
professionals and pharmaceutical companies promote the fiber theory in light
of overwhelming scientific evidence against dietary fiber? Why do
gastroenterologists promote the high-fiber, low-fat diet
that does not relieve patients of their dreadful symptoms? Why must patients
remain under their care for 30 or 40 years with digestion problems, constipation,
diarrhea, bleeding colon ulcers, Diverticulosis in the colon, fissures of the
anus, and an annual colonoscopy? The harsh immunosuppressant drugs control the
autoimmune diseases somewhat, but the patients suffer year after year as the
diseases get worse and worse. The side effects from the drugs cause
degenerative disc disease, osteoporosis, and allow other diseases to flourish
because the immune system is depressed. Could it be because their
patients remain under their care for 30 or 40 years? Eventually the patient dies in
old age of colon cancer. They also suffer the horrible experience of colon
removal and the installation of an external fecal collection bag. This
treatment is considered by the medical community to be successful. Read
testimonies on the following web page from people with ulcerative colitis and
Crohn's disease who have switched to an ultra low-fiber, high-fat diet that is
opposite to the one recommended by their gastroenterologist.

The professional dietary and
medical advice given by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) and
the United States Food and Drug Administration (USFDA) has been an utter
failure. The USDA has published the official diet in the form of an icon
called the USDA Food
Guide Pyramid. The USFDA has published the official USFDA
Recommended Daily Allowance (RDA) for carbohydrate, protein, and fat.
However, therein lies a big flaw. Neither the Food Guide Pyramid nor the RDA
is based on scientific facts. If you follow the Food Guide Pyramid as your
daily nutritional guide, you will encounter many related degenerative diseases
like diabetes, heart disease, cancer, bowel disease, autoimmune diseases, and
many more. The USDA Food Guide Pyramid and FDA Recommended Daily Allowance are
solely responsible for the current high incidence of adult onset Type II
diabetes which has tripled in the last 30 years. Type II diabetes is becoming
common among teenagers, who were once thought to be excluded from this
"age related" disease. People with diabetes have a significantly
increased risk of cancer. Now
the USDA has the gall to tell us it was our fault for not exercising enough.
They were wrong then, and they are wrong now. Exercise will not prevent the
escalating health care crisis.USDA
- Dietary Guidelines for Americans, 2005.

The new 2005 USDA Food Guide Pyramid
adds more confusion by having many different pyramids from which you must make a
selection. This system will cause the current obesity, cancer, diabetes, and heart
disease epidemics that were caused by the previous Food Guide Pyramid to become
more severe.

Medical schools teach that fiber
in the colon absorbs water to form a soft stool that relieves constipation.
This part of the fiber theory is repeated over and over by medical schools, fiber
supplement salesmen, and gastroenterologists. This theory is so widespread and widely accepted by the
medical community that they never bother to test it. The manufacturers of
fiber supplements are certainly not going to test the fiber theory.

There is one big problem with the
theory that a high-fiber diet relieves or cures constipation. Most people who
suffer with chronic constipation say the extra fiber doesn't help. I fact, most people on Internet message boards and forums claim the high-fiber diet
and fiber supplements make their constipation worse. The manufacturers of
fiber supplements reluctantly admit this happens. Patients of dieticians and gastroenterologists
often admit that the high-fiber foods increase constipation or fail to help in any
way. The following statements are typically made by people who promote the
high-fiber diet to relieve constipation or diarrhea, but they often warn that
the high-fiber foods can make these conditions worse. This is strange logic.

Take fiber supplements or
laxatives when your daily consumption of high-fiber foods does not relieve
constipation.

Take fiber supplements such as
psyllium mucilloid, polycarboxisal, or hemicellulose to relieve diarrhea.
They absorb water and produce bulk in the stool.

Drink 10 glasses of water each
day when using fiber supplements because the fiber may cause constipation
to be more severe.

The fiber theory is wrong.
Constipation is not caused by not having enough fiber in the diet.
Constipation is caused by the body drawing water out of the colon. Don't ask
your gastroenterologist about this. He was never taught it in medical school.

The colon will draw water out of
the stool in an attempt to stop fermentation of the fiber and carbohydrates by
the pathogenic bacteria and yeasts. Eating a high-fiber diet and taking fiber
supplements does not work because it simply promotes continual fermentation.
The colon becomes a hazardous waste dump. Constipation tends to slow down the
reaction. It is no surprise that some people don't tolerate fibrous foods
well. That should be the expectation since high-fiber foods are always
high-carbohydrate foods as well.

The
Dietary Fiber Theory is pure conjecture.
It is not scientifically true.

Medical schools and the
professional medical societies in the United States are too large,
interdependent,
and cumbersome to ever change. A large study on dietary fiber would simply be
ignored as other studies have been. This is the reason patients are
turning to alternative medicine in droves.

Dietary Fiber does not Relieve
Diarrhea

Many people tolerate constipation
for years or even decades. They simply take a laxative, drink prune juice,
take a laxative herb, or use some other temporary measure to gain relief, but
the game is over
when the constipation turns to chronic diarrhea that never stops. Some people
are forced to use the bathroom 20 times a day and numerous times during the
night. The urge to go never subsides between emergency dashes to use the
toilet.

Many people go shopping, go to
work, and lead a near normal life with chronic constipation. The same is not
true with chronic diarrhea. People on Internet message boards and forums
frequently report the highly embarrassing accident of messing their pants in
the car on the way to work or half way in their dash to the bathroom. Adult
size diapers are the only solution they know of.

Medical schools teach that fiber
in the colon absorbs water to form a soft stool that relieves diarrhea. They
claim that fiber is the miracle cure-all for diarrhea, constipation, and other
gastrointestinal tract problems. This part of the fiber theory is repeated
over and over by medical schools, fiber supplement salesmen, and
gastroenterologists. They claim dietary fiber cures constipation and diarrhea
but in fact it does neither.

There is one big problem with the
theory that a high-fiber diet relieves or cures diarrhea. Most people who suffer with chronic diarrhea say the extra fiber doesn't help. I fact, most people on Internet message boards and forums claim the high-fiber diet
and fiber supplements make their diarrhea worse. The manufacturers of fiber supplements reluctantly admit this happens. Patients of dieticians and gastroenterologists
often admit that the high-fiber foods increase diarrhea or fail to help in any
way. The following web page promotes the high-fiber diet as a recommendation
to relieve diarrhea but warns that the high-fiber foods can make it worse.
This is strange logic.

The body takes the opposite
approach when drawing water out of the colon doesn't stop the fermentation of
fiber and carbohydrates by pathogenic bacteria and yeasts. FLUSH time! The
body simply floods the colon with water in order to rid itself of the problem.
The body doesn't care whether you are stuck in traffic, in a board meeting, or
speaking before a group. When colon flush comes, you go. Taking more fiber
supplements does not work to stop chronic diarrhea. Eating high-fiber,
high-carbohydrate foods does not work either.

My diet program provides perfect
nutrition and deprives the pathogenic bacteria and yeast in the colon of their
favorite foods, fiber and carbohydrates. My diet program eliminates those
foods that trigger an autoimmune disease flare. Consequently, the colon
settles down without constipation or diarrhea. The offensive flatulence is
eliminated because digestive gasses are produced by the bacteria and yeast.
You can read the entire diet requirement in detail on the following web page.

The ultra low-fiber,
low-carbohydrate, high-fat, high-protein diet suppresses the pathogenic
bacteria and yeast in the colon to give perfect bowel movements. The stool is
firm but soft, and passes easily. The urge to go is slight, and waiting for a
convenient time is very easy. The claim that a person should have one or more bowel
movements each day is a myth. Skipping a day is normal and does not cause a
plugged feeling. Straining is not required to have a normal bowel movement.

The stool is a
perfect gauge of digestive health. Perfect poop produced by proper digestion will be medium brown in color and sink in the
bowl. The stool will retain shape and not disintegrate into
fragments. The volume could be considerable and medium diameter. "Pencil
poop" indicates the colon is constricted from inflammation. Perfect poop
will leave relatively clear, not cloudy, water in
the toilet bowl. There will be very little
or no odor, certainly not causing an offensively smelly bathroom. Flatulence
(intestinal gas) during the day will be infrequent with very little or no odor.
Fiber and carbohydrates in the diet cause excessive, smelly flatulence because
of bacterial fermentation in the colon and in the lower part of the small
intestines. A floating stool
indicates the improper digestion of fats, but this is not an unhealthy
condition. Undigested fats in the stool do not cause any problems whatsoever. Take a lipase
enzyme for this condition. Pancreatic enzymes can also cause more gas to be
entrained in the stool causing it to float. This is not a problem. Red color in
the stool indicates blood is being released near the end of the colon or
rectum. Black color indicates a blood release further up in the digestive
tract or stomach. Yellow could be undigested fat. Green is excess bile acids
or a short travel time. The normal color is brown to dark brown as everyone
knows. The diet program in the IBD chapter below will produce proper digestion
and will relieve constipation and diarrhea.

Most professional
gastroenterologists and other proponents of the high-fiber diet claim that
fecal matter is a highly toxic waste that will cause cancer, diverticulitis,
and ulcerative colitis if the transit time in the colon is not rapid.
They refer to the fecal matter as a hazardous waste that will kill you if you
don't have several bowel movements each day. They insist that you eat a
high-fiber diet in order to increase the bulk of the stool and the fecal
transit time. This theory is pure nonsense. In fact, it is backwards.

Fecal matter is always in the
colon and in contact with the lining. A fast transit time does nothing to
reduce this contact as many people falsely believe. As an example, your hand
will hurt if you slowly pour hot water over it. Pouring the water fast will
not make the hot water any less painful. In fact, the fast flowing water will
hurt worse. The same is true of the colon. If fecal matter were truly toxic,
the fast movement does not make it any less toxic, and it does not reduce the
exposure. The contact is always present, 100% of the time.

Eating high-fiber foods and taking
fiber supplements is very hazardous to your digestive health. Taking laxatives
to increase the fecal transit time is even worse. The current epidemic of
inflammatory bowel diseases is directly related to the increase in dietary
carbohydrates, fiber, and fiber supplements. The high-fiber theory is being
promoted everywhere you turn, and it is slowly killing people.

A low transit time is healthier. A low transit time allows all of the food to be digested in the small
intestine. Undigested food in the colon causes a proliferation of pathogenic
bacteria that is the true cause of diverticulitis and ulcerative colitis. A
fast transit time causes many diseases because of the overgrowth of pathogenic
bacteria, viruses, yeast, fungus, protozoa, and parasites in the colon. A fast
transit time turns the colon into a toxic fermentation tank. This is neither normal nor healthy for humans. Cows have a digestive system based on
fermentation. Humans do not.

The low-carbohydrate, low-fiber
diet presented here promotes optimum digestion with a slow transit time, very
little flatulence, and a soft, firm stool.
Skipping several days without a bowel movement is perfectly normal and
healthy.

Dietary Fiber Causes Bowel Diseases
and Cancer

Glucose (sugar) molecules attach
together in long chains called carbohydrates. The body breaks down the
chains in the small intestine during digestion for absorption of the
glucose into the blood. Dietary fiber consists of tightly bound carbohydrate
chains. These large fiber molecules cannot be broken by the body during
digestion because we do not have the enzymes necessary to do so.

Fiber typically passes through
the small intestines intact. Most doctors and nutritionists believe the fiber
continues unbroken through the colon to pass out of the body in the stool. This assumption is
false. The bacteria and yeast in the colon easily break down the
fiber. Fiber becomes the major food source for these pathogenic
bacteria and yeasts. Dietary fiber may not be
digestible by the healthy individual, but it certainly is digestible by
pathogenic gut bacteria and yeasts. These bacteria and yeasts ferment the
fiber to produce alcohol, acetaldehyde, lactic acid, acetic acid, and a host of
other toxic chemicals. Intestinal gas is a sure
sign fiber and/or sugars are being fermented. The bacteria turn the fiber into
acids and toxic chemicals that damage the lining of the colon, causing leaky
gut syndrome, lead to inflammatory bowel diseases, and a host of other
autoimmune diseases. Yeast feeds on the
fiber causing a systemic yeast infection.

Almost all the digestion and absorption of nutrients
occurs in the small intestine. Its long length alone provides a large surface area for digestion and absorption, and that area is further increased by mucosa villi on the surface of the interior intestinal wall. The mucosa (inside surface) and the submucosa
allow the small intestine to complete the process of digestion and absorption. The mucosa forms a series of villi or small projections only 0.5 to 1.0 mm high and gives the intestinal mucosa a velvety appearance. The villi are the primary
structure responsible for the digestion and absorption of food. These villi become damaged from a diet of excessive carbohydrates and the deficiency in proteins and fats. A protein deficiency may be the key because the villi have a short life and are continually being replaced. This replacement may be prevented when one or more of the essential amino acids are missing from the diet. Digestion of the carbohydrates in the small intestine can then become incomplete, and undigested carbohydrates pass to the colon
where they do not belong. This presence of carbohydrates in the colon encourages the growth of pathogenic bacteria (disease
causing bacteria such as Clostridium
Difficile) and pathogenic fungi which are opportunistic. There are
several possible
therapeutic alternatives for treating Clostridium Difficile. The healthy gut bacteria can become overpowered and destroyed by the bad bacteria and/or
candida yeast infections. Treatment of the bacteria with drugs is only a temporary solution because the opportunity exists for their reestablishment. Proper diet together with the reestablishment of a good bacterial flora is essential.
The bacteria must be starved to death by removing their primary food source,
dietary carbohydrates and fiber, from the diet. Removal of these undesirable bacteria by drug treatment will not be successful if carbohydrates
continue to be consumed. They will simply return after drug treatment ends because they are opportunistic. See the medical disclaimer below.Trouble
in the Gut, When Antibiotics Work Too Well and Clostridium Difficile Infection.Antibiotic Susceptibility Patterns - Bacteria Sensitivity to Various Drug.Intestinal Parasites & Bacteria by Leo Galland, M.D.

Fiber
and carbohydrates turn the colon into a hazardous waste dump.

People commonly have
a test of their fecal matter that shows they have one or more
pathogenic bacteria in the colon. The assumption is commonly made that they must
have contracted the pathogenic bacteria in some manner, and this is the reason
for their inflammatory bowel disease. Both of these assumptions are wrong.
People are routinely exposed to these bacteria which are suppressed by a
healthy digestive system. The abundance of carbohydrates and fiber in the diet
causes the opportunistic, pathogenic bacteria to proliferate, making
their IBD worse. The abundance of
pathogenic bacteria in the gut, caused by the consumption of high-carbohydrate foods
such as whole grains and fruit, proliferate in the appendix, where they cause
chronic inflammation. As a result, appendectomies are very common in people with IBD.

Carbohydrates cause an increase in insulin
which promotes the release of epinephrine (adrenalin), causing a collection of
physiological actions called the fight-or-flight responses. Two of these
responses are in the gastrointestinal tract where muscular movements and
digestive secretions slow down or even stop. This causes constipation. Most
gastroenterologists erroneously recommend a high-fiber diet to combat the
constipation caused by carbohydrates when the correct action should be to stop
eating carbohydrates. The fiber can be digested by pathogenic bacteria which
encourage their growth. These bacteria stimulate intestinal secretions
causing diarrhea. This is why so many people with intestinal diseases find no
relief from eating fiber or taking fiber supplements. High-fiber foods are
always high-carbohydrate foods. The body responds to prevent offensive
carbohydrates from entering the colon by pulling out the water. This causes
constipation. The body can also reverse this tactic by pouring lots of water
into the colon as it tries to flush out the offensive carbohydrates, bacteria,
yeast, and their toxic by-products. This causes
diarrhea. A sudden switch from one to the other and back again can occur.Study

The
low-carbohydrate, low-fiber diet recommended here has been shown to stop this
vicious cycle. The high-protein, high-fat diet presented here reduces insulin
and adrenalin responses. It promotes healing, a healthy digestive system, and
normal bowel movements. These improvements occur in a matter of weeks or days
in most cases simply by eating a diet typical of many primitive cultures over
the centuries. This was the natural diet for mankind prior to the cultivation of
grains and the production of factory foods. In order to fully appreciate this
diet plan, one must overcome his belief in the current nutritional myths which are promoted
by food manufacturing companies.Top Ten
Nutritional Myths, Distortions and Lies That Will Destroy Your Heath.

Some people have a defective gene that
causes carbohydrate intolerance or the inability to absorb glucose and
galactose in the small intestine. The unabsorbed glucose and galactose
continue through the intestinal tract to the colon where they promote the
growth of pathogenic bacteria, fungi, and yeasts. Glucose-Galactose
Malabsorption is inherited as a recessive genetic trait. The defective gene
responsible for this disorder (the sodium-glucose cotransporter [SGLT1]) is
located on the long arm of chromosome 22 (22q13.1).Complex

Dietary fiber does not prevent colon
cancer as commonly claimed. Scientific studies have proven that fiber increases
colon cancer. The abundance of carbohydrates and fiber in the diet causes
the opportunistic pathogenic bacteria to proliferate and thereby make the
inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD)
worse. The
Bran Wagon article by Barry Groves, PhD, exposes many of the common
myths about high-fiber foods. Dietary fiber actually causes or increases the
severity of many diseases.

Do not take fiber supplements. Do
not take psyllium seed husk which is very abrasive to the digestive system. Do
not eat wheat bran or rice bran. Fiber is a bad dude. Avoid all whole grains, brown
rice, fruit, and dried beans as they are high in both fiber and complex
carbohydrates, a double blow to the digestive system. Fiber increases the risk
of osteoporosis.

Vegetarians love Dr. Burkitt's
fiber theory because meat has no fiber. They use the fact that meat contains
no fiber to blame meat for every ailment known to mankind. Every vegetarian
book and website is plastered with this false claim. It is ironic that about 80%
of the people on inflammatory bowel disease Internet message boards and forums
are vegetarians or previously ate a highly vegetarian diet, yet vegetarians
are only 6% of the population in the United States. Bowel disease and
colon cancer have become epidemic in vegetarians in all English-speaking countries that follow the low-fat, high-fiber diet recommendations.

The author knows only two
vegetarians by name. Dave was a healthy-looking handyman. He was trim, and his
weight was perfect for
his size. In our discussion about health and diet five years ago he rejected my
low-carbohydrate diet comments. Dave stated he was a vegetarian. He had just formed
a vegetarian support group, but his vegetarian diet has not treated him well
since then. Dave was diagnosed with inoperable, terminal
colon cancer in 2005. Dave is about 50 years of age.Dave died in August, 2006.

Exercise will not eliminate the risk of
cancer but most likely increases the risk. Avoiding red meat and animal fats
will not eliminate the risk of cancer. A vegetarian triathlon competitor sadly discovered this fact. Kathy participated in triathlon
events even though she was 50 years of age. She developed a persistent cough
that her doctor diagnosed as being caused by a post nasal drip. She was very concerned
and visited another doctor when the cough became worse. Her chest
x-ray revealed the dreaded news. Kathy had tumors in her lungs that proved to be
cancerous. She had chemotherapy that seemed to place the cancer well into
remission. The tumors shrank for a while but came back. Kathy had every
new experimental cancer drug available. Nothing worked, and side effects were
horrible. She had chemo a second time, although doctors rarely try it. It did not
help her. Kathy didn't realize that excessive
exercise literally wipes out the immune system. It is common knowledge that
marathon runners easily get sick after a race because their immune systems are
shot. A strong immune system is necessary to prevent cancer. She didn't realize
that all immune system cells are made from amino acids, as found in meat. She is a
vegetarian. Kathy had an unprecedented third round of chemotherapy. Kathy died in September,
2006.

Dietary supplements will not kill cancer
cells. Wild claims made by salesmen of herbal products are simply not true.
Herbs will not kill cancer cells. Chinese medicine will not kill cancer cells.
Homeopathic products will not kill cancer cells. Acupuncture will not kill
cancer cells. Magnetic therapy will not kill cancer cells. All of these
treatments are a fraud.

The low-carbohydrate diet will
prevent cancer. It will also slow
and restrict cancer cell growth in existing cancers. It will also slow or kill fungal cells that grow
in association with cancer cells. Normal body cells that are infested with a
fungus are sometimes mistaken for cancer cells. Anti-fungal medicines should be
taken in addition to the low-carbohydrate diet to kill the fungus.

“Management
of glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) has been difficult using standard therapy
(radiation with temozolomide chemotherapy). The ketogenic diet is used
commonly to treat refractory epilepsy in children and, when administered in
restricted amounts, can also target energy metabolism in brain tumors. We
report the case of a 65-year-old woman who presented with progressive memory
loss, chronic headaches, nausea, and a right hemisphere multi-centric tumor
seen with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Following incomplete surgical
resection, the patient was diagnosed with glioblastoma multiforme expressing
hypermethylation of the MGMT gene promoter.”

Methods

“Prior
to initiation of the standard therapy, the patient conducted water-only
therapeutic fasting and a restricted 4:1 (fat: carbohydrate + protein)
ketogenic diet that delivered about 600 kcal/day. The patient also received
the restricted ketogenic diet concomitantly during the standard treatment
period. The diet was supplemented with vitamins and minerals. Steroid
medication (dexamethasone) was removed during the course of the treatment. The
patient was followed using MRI and positron emission tomography with
fluoro-deoxy-glucose (FDG-PET).”

Results

“After
two months treatment, the patient's body weight was reduced by about 20% and
no discernable brain tumor tissue was detected using either FDG-PET or MRI
imaging. Biomarker changes showed reduced levels of blood glucose and elevated
levels of urinary ketones. MRI evidence of tumor recurrence was found 10 weeks
after suspension of strict diet therapy.”

Conclusion

“This
is the first report of confirmed GBM treated with standard therapy together
with a restricted ketogenic diet. As rapid regression of GBM is rare in
older patients following incomplete surgical resection and standard therapy
alone, the response observed in this case could result in part from the
action of the calorie restricted ketogenic diet. Further studies are needed
to evaluate the efficacy of restricted ketogenic diets, administered alone
or together with standard treatment, as a therapy for GBM and possibly other
malignant brain tumors.”

The modern supermarket displays
thousands of high-carbohydrate, high-fiber foods that occupy 80% of the floor
space in the store. These foods are whole grain breads, bagels, cereals,
pasta, rice, legumes, potatoes, chips, cookies, candy, fruit, and fruit juices.
The promoters of carbohydrates and fiber have caused the current epidemic of
constipation, diarrhea, inflammatory bowel diseases, diabetes, heart disease,
and cancer.

Whole grain cereal manufacturers
are major supporters of the false fiber theory because cereal grains are high-fiber foods. They are constantly spouting
claims of fiber heath benefits without providing any
supporting science. The supporters of the fiber theory simply reference each
other and Dr. Burkitt's erroneous study. The new studies supporting dietary
fiber cannot be trusted.

One
thing is certain, you don't have constipation or diarrhea because you eat too
many Porterhouse steaks. Red meat and saturated animal fats do not cause
inflammatory bowel diseases, heart disease, or cancer. Those claims are all
myths, lies, and politically correct nutritional propaganda. People have
constipation or diarrhea because their diet consists primarily of high-fiber,
high-carbohydrate foods such as whole grain breads, bagels, cereals, pasta,
rice, legumes, potatoes, fruit, and fruit juices. Sugar, a carbohydrate, adds
to the problem, although it does not contain fiber.

Beef is one of most healthy foods
you can eat. Beef is naturally loaded with essential protein, fats,
vitamins, minerals, enzymes, and a multitude of other dietary supplements needed
for optimal health. Red meat is very low in unhealthy, inflammatory omega-6 fats
except the one essential omega-6 fatty acid, arachidonic acid. All of the
negative claims against eating red meat are lies, and the negative studies are
fraudulent. A diet consisting of 100% beef would provide wonderful health. Red
meat provides awesome health. Studies of primitive meat-eating societies such as
Indians and Eskimos have proven this scientific fact.

Vegetarian animals like cows,
goats, and deer digest food by a fermentation process. Bacteria in the stomachs
of these animals are able to break the fiber and cellulose down into glucose
for their food. The bodies of the dead bacteria are composed of protein and
fat that then become available to the cow or goat. Goats love to eat paper
because paper is an excellent food for a goat. Paper is cellulose that is
digested in the fermentation process within the goat's stomachs. Humans don't
eat paper because we do not have a vegetarian digestive system.

Cows and goats produce large
quantities of milk consisting of generous amounts of protein and fat, yet the
grass they eat has very little protein and fat. Grass is primarily complex
carbohydrates in the form of fiber and cellulose. Deer love to eat small
twigs, buds, and tree leaves in the same manner. The fermentation process in
the animal provides the protein and fat that the animal requires even though
protein and fat are not in their food.

Humans do not have a vegetarian
digestive system. Humans cannot digest fiber or cellulose. However, the bad
bacteria in the human colon can certainly feed on fiber, eventually causing
inflammatory bowel diseases. Paper is wonderful food for goats but not for
people, who have a carnivorous digestive system almost
identical to carnivorous cats, dogs, wolves, tigers, lions, etc. The best foods for
people are protein and fat.

This is a must read book. Gary
Taubes is an award-winning scientist who has specialized in exposing misleading,
incorrect, or fraudulent science. His seven-year research in every science
connected with the impact of nutrition on health shows us that almost
everything we believe about the nature of a healthy diet is wrong. For decades
we have been taught that fat is bad for us, carbohydrates are better, and that the
key to a healthy weight is eating less and exercising more, yet with more and
more people acting on the advice, we have seen unprecedented epidemics of
obesity and diabetes.

Taubes argues persuasively that the
problem lies in refined carbohydrates (white flour, sugar, easily digested
starches) via their dramatic effect on insulin -- the hormone that regulates fat
accumulation -- and that the key to good health is the kind of calories we take
in, not the number. There are good and bad calories. Taubes traces how
the common assumption that carbohydrates are fattening was abandoned in the
1960s when fat and cholesterol were blamed for heart disease and then -- wrongly
-- were seen as the causes of a host of other maladies, including cancer. He
shows us how these unproven hypotheses were emphatically embraced by authorities
in nutrition, public health, and clinical medicine in spite of how
well-conceived clinical trials have consistently refuted them. He also documents
the dietary trials of carbohydrate restriction which consistently show that the
fewer carbohydrates we consume the leaner we will be.

With precise references to the most
significant existing clinical studies, he convinces us that there is no
compelling scientific evidence demonstrating that saturated fat and cholesterol
cause heart disease; that salt causes high blood pressure; and that fiber is a
necessary part of a healthy diet. Based on the evidence that does exist, he
leads us to conclude that the only healthy way to lose weight and remain lean is
to eat fewer carbohydrates or to change the type of carbohydrates we do eat
and, for some of us, perhaps to eat virtually none at all.
